THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE is undoubtedly
the best abused" paper in the country. We
are proud of it. We thrive on abuse coming
from the sources from which we receive it.
Every soldier hating-paper in the coun-
try takes spells of shouting pension
agents organ" at US, and the cry is
taken up by disgruntled politicians whom
we have exposed and opposed, and by
every crank who cannot make use of the
paper to advertise him, or help along his
schemes. "PensiOn-agents' organ" is very
ridiculous for a paper which has the largest
circulation of any weekly in the United
States-outside of the great story papers
which is read every week by more than 6OO,-
600 people, and is increasing in circulation
and influence more rapidly than any paper
in the country. "Vipers, ye gnaw a file -

WHOLLY INCORRECT.

Speaking of the st. Louis mgddIe, the
RepaJIioaa Of that city says:
In the interim there has been plot 10 insult aud
humiliate him THE PRESIDENT
There has been nothing of the kind. Ii
has been the farthest possible remove from
plot.
There was no intention Of insulting or
humiliating the President nor was this
his presence was not desirable at the En-
campment That this was not agreeable in
formation TO receive we fully admit, for no
man likes TO be told that he Is an unwel-
come guest. But it had TO be done, and it
was done with as little offensiveness as pos
sible.
1t is useless for Mr.. Cleveland and his
friends to pretend to be ignorant Of the
deep-sested feeling in the GAR. against
him. This has been expressed so fire.
quently and SO emphatically that he and
they cannot but know il. Politics has moth
ing to do with it. Any other man, occupy
pying the Presidential chair who would
write such insulting vetOs, and defeat such
measure Of justice as the Dependent PEN
sion Bill, would arouse precisely the same
intensity of dislike.
If Mr.. Cleveland and his friends know
anything at all Of the spirit and traditions
Of the GAR, he and they would know that,
apart from the feelings entertained toward
him, such demonstration as was contem-
plated at st. Louis ON the occasion of his
visit, or the visit of any leading candidate
on the eve Of hot Presidential campaign,
would be viewed with alarm by the great
mass of comrades. We have had too bitter
an experience Of the evils of politics in the
Order not TO dread the approach Of anything
that looks like the introduction of that
baneful influence into our meetings.
When the first talk about Mr.. Cleveland
going to the Encampment came up, none OF
the comrades thought for moment that he
could seriously entertain the idea. They
felt that his knowledge of their feelings To-
ward him would not permit it. But when
he talked so positively about going, amaze,
ment was speedily followed by anger, and
they began TO speak their minds with free
dom that commanded general attention.
This is all the "plot there was.

THE "KEARsARGE" AND THE CHART


The discussion over what should be done
with the "Kearsarge" and the Hartford"
has developtthat, largely owing to the timely
and patriotic action of Hon. G. A. BOutelle,
the Secretary of the Navy has no choice but
to go on and repair those historic ships, and
keep them in commission. They had become
so much out of repair as to fall under the
operation of the law, which prescribes that
when war-ship gets into such condition
that it will cost 20 per cent. of the expense
of a new ship of like size and class to repair
her, she shall not be repaired, but shall be
sold or laid up. Representative Herbert, OF
Alabama, was strongly in favor of doing this
to the ships named, but Capt. BOutelle OPP
posed it, saying that every American citizen
ought to feel some little pride in keeping
afoat, in commission, out Of the huiks, two
such magnificent representatives, of the glories
of the United States Navy as Farragut's old
flagship, the Hartford, and that grand gun
boat, the Kearsarge, which won victory for
American arms within the view Of the peo-
pie of two nationalities of Europe, that
stands unrivaled in its brilliancy in the naval
history of the world. 1t would be shame
to us as people, if from the failure to ap-
prOpriate few paltry thousands of dollars, we
should turn over to be broken up, to be sold
for old iron, or cut up to make bonfrcs, two
vessels which will stand pre-eminent in our
history as types and representatives Of the
glorious prestige of the Navy of the United
States. In the olden daysit was not so. The
old Constitution was not permitted to be
sold at the auction-block and turned into a
barge for carrying coal, or laid up as hulk
at some seaport but she was preserved; her
timbers were from time TO time renewed; she
was kept in commission as long as possible
and she lives to-day, tenderly preserved, az
q shrine of American patriotism and legacy
of glory"
Messrs. McAdoo and Buck supported Capt
Boutelle's view of the case, as did also a
majority of the House, which passed Capt
Boutelle's amendment giving the Secretary
of the Navy 100000 to expend in repairing
these and other war vessels of like history.

KANSAS LOST THE MOST.
The Kansas CitY Melrs SAWS:


In the number OF soldiers sacrificed in the late
war compared with those sent by each State into
the field Kansas sustained the greatest loss of life.
was killed in battle.
The NclrS might have gone farther, and
said that Kansas sent more troops to the
field in proportion to her population than
any other State. With population in 1860
of 1O7, 2O6 she sent 2O,161 men to the Union
army, or nearly one for every five of her
population. Her quota was 1881, so she
sent more than 1000 more than she was re-
quired. Illinois came next TO Kansas, hav-
ing sent TO the war 151 per cent. of her
population, and Indiana and Minnesota next,
with fraction over II per cent. The Pacific
States sent but few men TO the Union army
-California's contribution being al per
cent. of her population, aud Oregon 81. The
Border States, for obvious reasons, also show
a small percentage of their population in
the Union army. OF the Northern States
New Hampshire sent the smallest proportion
of her population into the army-her per-
centage being but 100, when that for the
whole of New England was II, or about one
in eight.

does not propose to take back seat by any
means if the President visits the National
Eneampment. 1t held a meeting recently
to take action with regard to that event
The recent expressions Of opinion by the
GAR. were discussed, and President
Bierman, of the club, is reported to have
said:
The idea that we have abandoned our plan Of re-
ceiving the President is entirely Incorrect The
committee was not instructed by the association
and is expected TO decide how the President shall
be received without further direction. IL is certain
that we will prepare some sort Of reception for
him in spite OF all the talk there has been about its
improperly. although we may not meet him at
the depot and escort him through the streets.
Mr.. Stark, the Chairman, added:

ARMS FOR POSTS.

We have frequent inquiries from comrades
as to where they can get muskets and ac-
cOuterments for their Posts.
Condemned Springfelds-these are sold
by the Government at the rate of 81 each for
the muskets, and so cents each for the ac-
cOuterment. They are packed in cases which
contain 10 muskets, and there is an ad-
ditional charge of 81 for the case.
The way to get them is to send the order
TO "Chief of Ordnance, U. S. A., Washing

amount, made in favor of that officer. The
arms will be shipt by freight from Gov
